Caught on Tape: Rehoboth Beach, DE Cop Tazes Man Then Stomps On His Face

Chris | InformationLiberation

In this newly posted video, Delaware police officer Robert Whitman of the Rehoboth Beach police is seen on video cavalierly tazing 34-year-old Jeremy Anderson of Mechanicsburg, Pennsylvania, then disturbingly stomping his face into hard pavement.

Jeremy Anderson was placed in the bizarre position of being torn between "not resisting" and trying to guard himself from 50,000 volts of electricity about to be pumped into his body by another cop. While being handcuffed, with one hand behind his back and an officer on top of him, Anderson is seen on video moving his other arm to try and defend himself from Whitman's taser, officer Robert Whitman is then seen brutally stomping Anderson's face twice into the pavement. Anderson's doctors said he suffered a concussion as a result of the vicious assault.

The man in the video, 34-year-old Jeremy Anderson of Mechanicsburg, Pa., says he didn’t deserve the treatment he received from the three officers. He claims the entire ordeal started after he got into a verbal altercation with a hotel worker over a room key. Once police arrived, Anderson says they began to use a taser on him.

“He tased me in the chest,” he said. “I fell to the ground and he shot me with a dart in the back. He tased me multiple times in the spine.”

Anderson’s wife, Candace Brubaker, soon arrived and turned on her cellphone camera while begging the officers to stop.

“I was horrified,” said Brubaker. “You hear me in the video, I was simply horrified.”

Anderson was arrested and charged with disorderly conduct, resisting arrest and offensive touching of law enforcement. He spent two nights in jail before Brubaker posted a $7,000 bond. Once he was released, Anderson says he was told by doctors that he suffered a concussion.

“I have severe head pain, severe back pain and my nerves were freaking shot,” said Anderson.

The police chief says he's "investigating" but none of the officers involved have been fired.

Where I live we just recently got e channel Fox Crime. They show old episodes of "Cops".
Now, I'm olde enough to remember when cops treated citizens differently. I saw it escalate, but even so, I was SHOCKED to see how humane, human, and civil they were when that show started. And I mean in New York, Cleveland, city, country. They didn't have tasers back then, but they also didn't treat citizens OR perps, or suspects as they do nowadays. Seriously, we would be totally happy with those kinds of cops, but it seems like now we see them act as if they were an occupying army, and hated the folks that love there. Cops used to use psychology and street smarts to get things in order, instead of brute force.

since all the "good" cops continue to back-up the bad cops there are no good cops.until this is fixed this b.s. will continue until t.s.h.t,f. in increments then all at once.dump the shitty cops and watch things get better quickly

"as much it sucks being tased its only going to get 10x worse if you slap it away " That point of veiw would land us in the united states of FUCKED. Hope you're feelin better,Jeremy.Way to be,man.Sue em till your grandkids are set. REFUSE.RESIST.

This is typical Rehoboth/Dewey Beach Police behavior.
They do not respect people, exercise brutal acts, take the law into their own hands and violate constituional rights.
They get their kicks by arresting teenagers that are caught drinking beer,
They treat them like harden criminals, Instead of just giving them a fine or warning. I am appalled to know an incident concerning a member of my family was not isolated .
They invaded a house without a warrant, kicked in a door made
kids take breath test, arrested those that declined or spoke out
for their rights. One officer grab a kid smashed him against a wall, hand cuffed him , simply for speaking up for another boy who was deliberately being humiliated by the officer.
Police brutality in this town needs to stop.
